Mel 2013

Day 3: 
Woke up at 7am and started working at Zukka Cafe. Zukka Cafe is owned by Carmen's parents and of course it's considered a family business. A nice experience cos i learned how to make different sandwiches like focaccia and burchetta.
Left the workplace at 3pm, and Uncle & Aunt brought Ivy, Carmen and I to Mt Dandenong. Miss Marples Tearoom is located there, and their scones and several desserts are rather famous.

^ I didn't really like the scones as i felt they tasted a little dry on my tongue, however Ivy and Carmen love it.

^ But i really love this dessert!!! I prefer special desserts like molten lava cake topped with ice-cream, and this, because i felt the cold ice-cream complements so well with the warm pudding beside. But i totally got rid of the rip cream on top, a little too much if i eat it with the ice-cream. Not a fan of rip cream... But this dessert is indeed yummy!!! :)

Day 4:
Had brunch at Axil Cafe. During my 2 weeks stay in Melbourne, i can say among so many coffee we have tasted in all the different cafes, Axil serve the most aromatic ones. You can really taste the difference, no wonder they say roasted coffee always taste better. Thumbs up for that!

This day was an insane shopping spree day. If you are ever going to visit any parts of Australia, please do not forget to visit the different brands of factory outlets! You will find super cheap and discounted items of their brand, and the quality is still preserved. Visited Supre factory outlet and i literally went berserk spending 2 hours there. The entire place is so huge, the clothes all looked so appealing to me, i had to get them all man. Kidding of course i did not, but i managed to get myself more than 10 favourite pieces, and a few for my friends and other cousins :)

Visited one of the Direct Factory Outlet afterwards. Direct factory outlet is one that have many different brands in a mall, unlike a distinct brand factory outlet like Supre. So i got myself some clothes again from DFO, and alot are from their local brands like Dotti and Valleygirl :)

Yup, it was a good day!

Have yet to finish updating my trip, and there are also many more other things i wanna update. Yesterday, i went out with the usual bunch and it was a really good day with them. It becomes a daily habit to chit-chat together in Amk's Macdonald at the end of our day, and that is what makes me love them and keeps me anticipating more of these with them. 
A good day spent idling at Sentosa, laughing away at different things, and racking up usual jokes. I love spending days or nights like these with them because there are always plenty to say and share, plenty to tell and laugh. I love how after each dates like this we crave for even more gatherings and company. I love how some jokes never get too old, how they can pop up many times and yet still send us into a hee-haw fit. Can't wait for the next one.

All of them are not me. All of them are not you. Telling me to give up and move on is such an easy task, but try, try after fighting so much personal thoughts and decided to count on you, try after receiving an assurance i wanted. What i'm trying to say is, we may not have gone through the biggest hurdle together, neither have we been together for a long time, but the amount of love and happiness i invested in you doesn't beat any other. And that is why i cannot give up this easily. Once i decided to give up, that means there's no turning back between us. I don't want so.

Have a great week ahead!
